Andrew Carnegie moved into his newly completed mansion in late 1902 and lived there until his death in 1919; his wife, Louise, continued to live there until her death in 1946. The building is now the Cooper-Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, part of the Smithsonian Institution. The surrounding neighborhood on Manhattan's Upper East Side has come to be called Carnegie Hill. The mansion was named a National Historic Landmark in 1966.[3][5][6][7] HistoryThe land was purchased in 1898[1] in secrecy by Carnegie, more than a mile north of what was then fashionable society, in part to ensure there was enough space for a garden.[8] He asked his architects Babb, Cook & Willard for the "most modest, plainest, and most roomy house in New York".[3] However, it was also the first American residence to have a steel frame and among the first to have a private Otis Elevator and central heating.[8] His wife, Louise, lived in the house until she died in 1946.[9] The Carnegie Corporation gave the house and property to the Smithsonian in 1972, and the modern incarnation of the Cooper-Hewitt Museum opened there in 1976. Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer Associates handled the renovation into a museum in 1977.[9] The interior was redesigned by the architectural firm, Polshek and Partners, headed by James Polshek, in 2001.[10] The mansion was used in the 1973 musical film Godspell for the number "Turn Back, O Man." DescriptionThe mansion stands on {{convert|1.2|acre|ha}} of land at the northeast corner of 5th Avenue and 91st Street. It is a 3-1/2 story structure, finished in brick and stone. It is stylistically an eclectic variation of the Georgian Revival, with stone ashlar corner quoining, windows with heavy stone trim, and a dentillated cornice topped by an urned balustrade. A grassy lawn separates the house from 91st Street, and there is a small garden on its west side. Just east of the mansion proper is a townhouse that was purchased by Carnegie soon after its 1905 construction as a residence for his daughter. This building forms part of the current complex, although its interior has been modernized and converted to office and administrative uses by the Smithsonian.[5] See also
